Jam Jar Candles and Lace Votives

I absolutely love these jam jar candles I tried my hand at making a few weeks ago--so easy to create! They're made with vellum paper--a cool crisscross pattern and a floral pattern--and twine ribbon. Inside, we'll have our electric tea lights, and then line 10 of these beauties along the white carriage rail--behind the escort card tree display--right when you walk in.

The lace votives are also pretty adorable. These are quick to make with a glue gun: glass votive, vintage lace from the 30s and 40s (courtesy of Etsy!), and twine to top it off. Three will go on each table in the dining room (24 total), and perhaps a few on the cake table.
